cited as evidence that a law enacted two years ago is working.

Not to pee on their parade or anything...but the law is what you could kindly call a joke. The fight against spam is not going to be stopped by some feel-good legislation. Now if the FTC were to seriously go after the spammers, that might make a difference...but so far they have not done so. Yes, there has been a case or two in the news but that is about it. When the spammer gives you either their address or the address of the business they are spamming for...how hard is it to go after them?

Not correct. Many spam emails contain no valid email addresses or URLs.
